This summer, Portland’s Safe Blocks program is helping neighbors host parties in their neighborhoods through Party On, Portland! events from August 1 through August 14. These parties are a great way to meet your neighbors, discover local resources, strengthen community bonds, and celebrate safety and unity.
Interested in hosting a party in your neighborhood? Register by June 30. You can get a free permit to close off your street, receive a free noise variance, and much more. Visit the Party On, Portland! website for more information.
Also this summer, Portland is hosting four free National Night Out events – one in each Council district – for the community to engage directly with multiple public safety partners. Events are currently planned for July 31, August 4, August 7, and August 14 from 4 – 7 p.m. Additional information will be shared in advance.
